Re: How to handle Coldfusion SOAP Web Service Errors

I would strive to keep the web service as simple and as universal as possible. That often means passing and returning simple types.

This is especially relevant because Coldfusion is weakly typed. What it calls 'any' or 'xml' type may be interpreted quite differently by other platforms. That is what my suggestion has been all about.

You should either accept what Coldfusion's GetSOAPResponse(webservice) is giving you or you should craft the SOAP response you want, as I did in my suggestion, and return it as a string.

It is possible I can get this fault output from GetSOAPResponse(webservice) because I just want to pass from CFC main fault code and main response, I don't want to pass complete soap xml.

thanks BKBK, it's working.

I was calling like this:

ws = CreateObject("webservice","http://localhost/CFTest/MainLogin.cfc?wsdl", {refreshWSDL=true});

ws.service_login_authentication("1111","1111");

req = GetSOAPResponse(ws);

writeoutput(req);

</cfscript>

But my component is not produces this fault code:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<<faultcode>1000</faultcode>

<faultstring>INVALID LOGIN</faultstring>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

What is your ColdFusion Version as i have checked in ColdFusion 11 developer edition and ColdFusion 8 enterprise which is on window 2003 server.

Could you please check my below component, did i am doing something wrong.

    <cffunction name="service_login_authentication" access="remote" output="true" returntype="any" hint="Returns login">
     <cfargument name="login" type="string" required="yes">

        <cftry>
          <cfif #arguments.login# eq "1111" and #arguments.password# eq "1111">
              <cfset isLoginValid = True>
            </cfif>

             <cfif isLoginValid>

                                  <soapenv:Fault>
                                     <<cfoutput><faultcode>#cfcatch.errorCode#</faultcode>

                                  </soapenv:Fault>
                               </soapenv:Body>
                            </soapenv:Envelope>
                       </cfsavecontent>

                </cfcatch>



            </cftry>
      <cfreturn soapRes >
    </cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

If my component is okay then may be possible some setting in ColdFusion administrator. i have checked in SoapUI as well via getSoapResponse method.

Your code might be invoking a cached, hence old, version of the WSDL. Do something like the following to make sure the current WSDL is invoked:

Re: How to handle Coldfusion SOAP Web Service Errors

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 19:33:45 GMT

I am using same component which you given:

<cftry>

</cfif>

<kps_response>

<token>354dfdffsdf</token>

</kps_response>

</cfsavecontent>

</cfif>

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<<cfoutput><faultcode>#cfcatch.errorCode#</faultcode>

<faultstring>#cfcatch.message#</faultstring></cfoutput>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

</cfsavecontent>

</cfcatch>

</cftry>

</cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

I did not change anything. if you have another component can you post here so I can check if I am doing something wrong may be.

The component you are using as web service is probably different from mine.

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 18:34:50 GMT

I am saying that your last suggestion I have checked but not working.

From your last suggestion the output of fault is :

I don't understand what you mean. Are you asking a new question? Did my last suggestion work or not?

Many Thanks BKBK!!

I already check this. When calling GetSOAPResponse it just take the whole cfsavecontent string inside response like this:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 14:36:30 GMT

My suggestion just followed your example, presuming it works and expecting you to fill in the details. If I had to do it myself, I would:

- make the code more universal by using <cfsavecontent> in place of <cfxml> and returning string type.

- set the output attribute to false.

Something like this:

<cftry>

</cfif>

<cfsavecontent variable="soapRes"><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<kps_response>

<token>354dfdffsdf</token>

</kps_response>

</cfsavecontent>

</cfif>

<cfsavecontent variable="soapRes">

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<<cfoutput><faultcode>#cfcatch.errorCode#</faultcode>

<faultstring>#cfcatch.message#</faultstring></cfoutput>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope

</cfsavecontent>

</cfcatch>

</cftry>

</cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

Re: How to handle Coldfusion SOAP Web Service Errors

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 10:46:54 GMT

Thanks BKBK

I have tested in this way but in this case its generating fault code inside a response like this:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<ns1:service_soap_loginResponse soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:ns1="http://DefaultNamespace">

<service_soap_loginReturn xsi:type="ns2:Document" xmlns:ns2="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap">

<kps_response>

<faultstring>Invalid</faultstring>

<kps_response>

</service_soap_loginReturn>

</ns1:service_soap_loginResponse>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

I want that Fault code should be inside Soap:Fault like this:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<faultstring>INVALID_PASSWORD</faultstring>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Any ideas?

How to handle Coldfusion SOAP Web Service Errors

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 19 Oct 2014 10:39:49 GMT

Hi,

I have just created simple wsdl example:

My Component:

          <cfif #arguments.login# eq "abcdef" and #arguments.password# eq "123456">
                  <cfxml variable="soapRes">
                        <kps_response>
                            <message>OK</message>
                            <token>354dfdffsdf</token>
                         </kps_response>

                    </cfxml>
             <cfelse>
                     <cfthrow type="MyException" message="INVALID LOGIN" errorcode="1000" />
         </cfif>

      <cfreturn soapRes >
    </cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

Its generating wsdl and no problem with response but when generating any error like username and password does not match then it's generating fault code like this:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode>

<faultstring>coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: [coldfusion.runtime.CustomException : INVALID LOGIN. ]</faultstring>

<ns1:hostname xmlns:ns1="http://xml.apache.org/axis/">HOST_NAME</ns1:hostname>

</detail>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

But I want customize Fault Code like this:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Body>

<soapenv:Fault>

<faultstring>INVALID LOGIN</faultstring>

</soapenv:Fault>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Fault Code and Fault String should be customize and I don't want detail tag completely. In old ColdFusion version like ColdFusion 8 displaying detail tag with <ns1:stackTrace xmlns:ns1="http://xml.apache.org/axis/"> coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: and so on.

Any suggestions on how to create customize faultcode and faultstring is very helpful.

Thanks!!
